Kids stuck on roller coaster in hail storm. It hit immediately . . . . Alan, Nolan, and I stood watching Payton, Darla & Elijah go whizzing around on this roller coaster at Oaks Park this afternoon - when all of a sudden huge ice pellets (hail) started pummeling us all. Alan took Nolan to seek cover. I and my hoodless jacket stood yelling at my kids to pull their hoods over their heads. Darla & Payton kept growling at me that the hoods wont stay on. I watch as the roller coaster violently jerks them upward - their hoods go flinging back - exposing bare faces staring straight up into the sky. 
It was scary yet I also almost peed my pants laughing and tears in my eyes from being beat up by the hail myself.Before the hail storm we got in almost 2 full hours of play at Oaks Park. It was the 3 younger ones 1st time there. Alan and I wanted to treat the kids to a special outing before they all return from Spring Break tomorrow. Nolan unbelievably did well on a ton of rides by himself. It was shocking!!! He even went in the old haunted house which is now a Lewis n Clark thing - but dark & scary inside. 
So he did this without a tear but wont go to church nursery or anyones home w/o us.
Payton was getting some serioud behind-the-wheel time at the bumper cars. Poor kid was in a sea of teen girls.
Nolan & Darla in their shooting plane.
Elijah laughing hysterically as him & his sister had this huge swinging rocking boat all to themselves. The thing normally seat over 20 people. They each sat at opposite ends - laughing at one another. Was a joy to watch!
